Homer plays Pokemon Go in hilarious new Simpsons trailer

If you needed any indication that Pokemon Go is now everywhere, it's filtered it's way into Springfield with everyone's favourite fictional character Homer Simpson jumping on board with the hot new free-to-play app.

In a new clip released by Fox, titled "Pokemon Now?" Homer visits the zoo with Bart and Lisa, but instead of enjoying the local wildlife, he ignores both his offspring to instead play Pokemon Go on the park bench.

Although not explicity mentioned, it's clear Pokemon Go is what Homer is playing on his phone, as he reads off the names of several well-known Pokemon monsters like Sandshrew.

Gamespot has suggested that the clip, which you can see above, is a one-off and not intended as part of an actual future episode of The Simpsons
